It’s time to go free-wheeling with episode 28 of Life In Arpeggio’s 15-Min Flash Mix. Your groove guru of the day is none other than RPDM, the apt DJ alias of Reuben Prashanth Dominic Michael.

 

He describes himself as someone with the foundation of a percussionist and the heart of a dancer, and it shows in his studded performance portfolio that’s been burgeoning this past year. His explorations have included gigs at Potato Head, Kilo Lounge, and events for Manifest including his blooming Groove Garden residency.

For the 15-Min Flash Mix, RPDM ventures across an expansive soundscape, like a rolling field spilling into several domains, from the tingly electricity of tech-house to the delicate ambience of deep house. He delivers melody-crafted pastures with sublime synths and loquacious basslines, along with razor-sharp percussions that slice and dice. His set is a spritz of energy that both wades in serenity and dives into dynamism, striking a perfect balance like yin and yang. It’s compellingly multifaceted – tribal, cultural, ethereal and visceral – and it’s just an hors d’oeuvre from the melting pot of tastes of RPDM.
